On 19 November 2022, the police blocked the entrance to the Protection Church of the UOC in Pukhivka, reports the “KozakTv1” Telegram channel.

"OCU activists, together with the territorial defence members, literally pushed out the parishioners of the temple from the territory. They beat the women and tried to take the camera away from the reporters. As a result, the police removed the raiders from the territory of the Protection Church. It was decided to collect all the property of the Orthodox community and seal it in a room that will be guarded by the police until the circumstances are clarified. The UOC faithful – the real owners of the temple – were not given access to their shrine, unlike Epifaniy’s supporters," the report said.
